As the sole director of a SMSF with a Corporate Trustee in place, I transitioned to Crest Accountants in 2017. I am very happy with the professional relationship developed with Joanna Crandon. She is very approachable and always willing to explain any queries I have from time to time. The Super Fund’s paperwork is kept up to date and any work required is diligently and promptly attended to. The customer service I received is exemplary. Thank you, Joanna.

Wesley from Crest Accountants has been looking after all our Accounting , Taxation and Financial Advice both personally and Business since 2014 . I have found the Crest Accountants team to offer exceptional service and a professionalism. Care and attention to details is of high priority . We have no hesitation in recommending Crest Accountants for your business and personal financial advice and accounting needs. Wesley is always available to share his knowledge and expertise.  
Mary Sarroff – Co-Founder – Sarroff Group

I have partnered with Crest Accountants for quite a number of years now. I guess one of the most valuable things to me as a business owner - apart from good smart accounting - is the fact that Crest are proactive in their support of my business. Crest Accountants stay on top of things globally, nationally and locally in terms of what I need to be made aware of. I liaise mostly with Troy who genuinely takes an interest in the wellbeing of both myself, and the health and growth of my business. He tends to see ‘big picture’ and that has been invaluable to me over the years. This will be even more essential as we begin to navigate higher volatility levels resulting from increased global instability in the seasons to come.

Justin Fahey has been incredibly professional all the way through the process and I would like to express my appreciation! Justin made it easy for me to provide the required information about my cryptocurrency and his confidence & great knowledge is impressive. I will certainly choose CREST to look after my future tax returns and will highly recommend Justin to any person who needs help with cryptocurrency taxation. Thank you!

“I've been using Crest accountants for 5 years & it's always a great service. Every year whenever I'm ready, I send my files through their convenient WeTransfer program and write any comments. I've never had to go into the office been able to do it all conveniently from home at anytime I want. Excellent & efficient service every time.”
Michael Slivka

“I recommend using Brett and Wes to handle any accounting matters on the Gold Coast and surrounding areas. I have worked closely with them on my personal and business matters. I find them to be very thorough, professional and can endorse their ability to others. Great Work Crest. Thanks for your ongoing support.”
Mason Kidman

“Growing a business is never easy which is why we approached Crest. We have been using Crest for the past 2 and half years and all we can say is thank you! Ryan and the team have always provided professional advice. The advice is thorough and has always taken into account the pros and cons, especially from a Risk's perspective. We have been able to establish an efficient business structure which allows us to minimise tax where possible while working towards quarterly targets to grow the business. Without Crest, our understanding of the business would not be where it is today.”

“Recently I came on board as a client and cannot recommend Angela highly enough. To date, my experience with Angela and the team has been fantastic and I would not hesitate in providing a referral. I have been impressed with the prompt return of calls and emails and have had all work completed within our agreed time frames. The valuable taxation and small business advice I have received has been incredibly useful and provided me with support and guidance on my personal and business journey. If you are looking for a Tax Accountant or Advisor, don't hesitate in making the move over to Crest.”
Lauren Gregory – Innovative Bean Counting

"Troy and the Team at Crest Accountants always are a pleasure to deal with. My tax scenario was very complex however it was really relaxed and easy to chat it through. It feels so good to have it all back on track."
Nick Moore

"Since 1996, I’ve entrusted the firm and its staff with my personal and business-based financial affairs. Their expertise, guidance, and comprehensive ‘on-tap’ counsel have been invaluable to all aspects of my accounts and financial management, and both the partners and accountants have worked tirelessly to keep the many elements of my financial matters on track, and in my best interests." 
Dr. Dimitri Kopanakis – Managing Director - String Central Pty Ltd

“Crest Accountants have been our accountants and financial advisors for 15 years. We have found them to be reliable and competent and have placed great value on the many suggestions they have made to us in this period which include: Company and Superannuation Structuring; Financial Planning; Budgeting and Taxation Strategy.  They have been pro-active to any legislation changes and have advised well in time to make such changes which are necessary for compliance and protection of our company.   We can recommend them to any company wishing to make use of their services.”

I cannot commend Crest Advisors lending team enough. As first home owners, we found the place we wanted and knew we had to find someone to make our loan happen. Dion & Nat, not only had fantastic communication & correspondance, they worked with us on finding what we wanted and helped us secure our first home. The were patient & explained everything as we were completely new to it all. They gave us direction and guidance in what we needed and were very thorough with what they needed.We cannot thank Dion & Nat enough and highly reccomend them to anyone.
